The Rejected Luna : Ex-husband Wants Her Back

BOUND TO ANSWER ME

°XAVIER°

Isabella held the little girl in her arms, trying to hide her from me, I was certain she heard me mention that name, and I don't think she forgotten that conversation in between her and my mother, "My husband named her after his mother, since our daughter looks like his mother," she looked nervous, still she managed to explain, I listened calmly, though it was hard to believe.

Finally she looked at me while still hiding her daughter, "I think our appointment is over, you can leave now."

"Too eager to send me away? Are you hiding something?" I didn't know why I asked her such a question, but I did, I'm sure my words made her even more nervous, as she stammered, "I don't understand what you're talking about, Mr. Rodriguez."

The little girl looked at me while asking, "Mommy, do you know this handsome uncle?" Isabella smiled at her, "They're here to consult mommy about their son," did she just say consult? What a nice way to put it!

The little girl glanced at Leo approaching him with a bright smile just like Isabella, "I'm Estelle, nice to meet you, don't worry, my daddy says mommy is an angel, she'll make you better in no time."

"How old are you?" I became curious at her matured way of speaking, Isabella quickly intervened, pulling her child back as if I was going to take that child away from her, "Three years old," but she didn't look three, she seemed a bit older than Leo.

Before I could speak further, a man walked in with a bouquet of flowers.

"Honey, you're here already?" Isabella smiled at the man surprising me, did she just call him honey? He smiled back at her, "Yes, darling, did I disturb you?"

She shook her head going to him, "They're about to leave, the appointment is over."

Do I not have a name or title for her to introduce? They? What does she mean by they? Doesn't she know me? Am I just a stranger to her? Why is she repeating the words about leaving again and again, as if she is chasing me away?

"An ex-husband is always a stranger, my Lord, so chasing away isn't a wrong thing," Audrey said, making me to wonder, "Did I say that out loud?"

"If it was a little loud, they might have heard too" he replied, I rolled at his words.

As the man handed her the bouquet, he said, "This is for you, darling" she took it, with a blushing face, while the little girl exclaimed looking at the bouquet, "Mommy's favorite flowers!"

Shifting his attention towards the little girl, he scooped her in his arms and she excitedly hugged him, "Daddy! I had so much fun!" He laughed while showering her with kisses, "Did you? But I missed you, and your Mommy."

Are we invisible or what? What exactly are they doing in front of us? Showing off their love?

Just then, the lady who earlier sent us with Isabella came by. "Doctor Veronica, do you want to take the night shift today?"

Wait, what's with this one by one barging into the room? Is this a doctor's cabin or visiters room? I can't help but to sigh at the scenario in front of me.

"I don't think I can," Isabella started to say, before she could continue, he continued it for her, "Mrs. Myra, not today, because I promised my wife and daughter a date tonight."

She smiled at him, "Oh my goodness! How foolish of me to spoil it, you both enjoy your date, I'll find a replacement for the night shift," he smiled back thanking her, what kind of creepy, sinister grin it is?

Isabella grabbed her bag and said, "Mrs. Myra, please lock the room for me."

She seemed so eager to leave, the man took the bag from her, "Let me carry this for you, darling" he said as he walked ahead with the little girl and the bag, she followed behind with the bouquet, and we all left the cabin.

She glanced back and smiled, I thought it was for me until I noticed it was for Leo who was smiling at her, glancing at me, she quickly turned away without meeting my eyes. Why is she acting like this? It's beyond awkwardness, it's been five years, but why? That's when I heard the nurses giggling.

"Oh my goodness! Did you see Mr. Lucifer coming all the way here for Doctor Veronica?"

"Believe it or not, they're the most lovable couple, he is such a gentleman."

"Yes, a man like him is rare, handsome and kind, a rare combination."

"Doctor Veronica is so lucky to have such a husband!"

"Ahhh! I envy her, I wish I could find a chocolate guy like him."

What exactly am I hearing? Handsome and kind? What's so great about him? Manly? He looks more girly to me than a heartthrob, these humans need their eyes checked for better vision.

"My Lord, can you stop glaring at him?" Audrey said reminding me of what I'm doing, "He's already gone."

I laughed denying his words, "What do you mean by me glaring at him? Why would I do that?" He hummed, "Yeah, why would you do that? I must be mistaken to think you're glaring at him like you want to pierce him with your gaze."

This sarcastic guy never changes, but I'm sure she's trying to avoid my attention, like she's hiding something, what exactly are you hiding, Isabella? So, this is how we meet after five years, and this is how you treat me coldly? Well, I don't think this will be our first and last meeting. We'll meet again soon, and you'll be bound to answer me then.

"Rey, by the time I get back to our pack, I need that damn woman who declared in front of me that Isabella is infertile and would never be able to get pregnant," I ordered sternly clenching my fist, "what exactly happened? If she is infertile, how come she has a child now? What exactly they're hiding from me for the five years?"
